Hyatt Hotels Corp. expanded its Hyatt Place brand throughout Latin America and introduced its first Hyatt-branded hotel in Panama with the opening of Hyatt Place Panama City/Downtown. Located in the city’s financial zone in the heart of the banking district, the new hotel is located approximately 25 minutes from Tocumen International Airport and close to local attractions such as Calle Uruguay, offering a wide variety of cuisine and clubs. In addition to 165 spacious guestrooms, the property offers complimentary breakfast, five meeting rooms, a coffee and cocktails bar, a 24-hour made-to-order dining venue, a 24-hour gym, a self-service laundry facility and an outdoor, rooftop swimming pool boasting panoramic views of Panama City.

“We are very excited to bring Hyatt Place Panama City/Downtown to Panama, and welcome new and existing Hyatt guests to our new hotel,” said Manuel Villalobos, general manager, Hyatt Place Panama City/Downtown. “Hyatt Place was designed for a lifestyle, not a demographic, and as a result, we are confident that everyone from business travelers to students will appreciate the open, intuitive design, casual atmosphere and practical amenities, such as free WiFi, free breakfast and 24-hour food and beverage availability.”
